What Morton Comprehensive Health Services, Inc. does

Morton Comprehensive Health Services, Inc. is a private, not-for-profit 501(c)(3) Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC) headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, with roots tracing to 1921 and federal FQHC standing since 1972. The organization operates seven locations across the Tulsa metropolitan area and Nowata, Oklahoma, including a 60,000 square foot main facility in the historic Greenwood District, three family health centers, two embedded primary care clinics at Family and Children's Services (the most recent opened July 2025), an embedded clinic at Sandy Park public housing, and the Midtown Homeless Health Center co-located with the Salvation Army Center of Hope.

Morton delivers a comprehensive suite of integrated primary care services organized around a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model, including family medicine, pediatrics, women's health, dentistry, optometry, behavioral health, lab and X-ray, pharmacy, transportation, telemedicine, clinical pharmacist consultations, case management, and well child checks. The technology stack centers on an electronic health records system with a patient portal, a telehealth platform, digital X-ray imaging, retinal camera imaging, and a 340B discount pharmacy with a drive-through and Walgreens partnership. The organization is Joint Commission accredited (one of only two FQHCs in Oklahoma with this distinction) and operates as a Teaching Health Center in partnership with Oklahoma State University.

Morton's business model combines several revenue streams: fee-for-service patient revenue from commercial insurance, Medicare, and SoonerCare (Oklahoma Medicaid, with cost-based reimbursement as an FQHC), federal Health Center Program grant funding under 42 U.S.C. 254b, the 340B pharmacy spread between acquisition cost and reimbursement, and a sliding fee scale based on Federal Poverty Level that ensures no patient is denied care regardless of insurance status. The organization is governed by a patient-majority board (51% patient representation) and is led by CEO Susan Savage.
